Belgian Dark Strong Ale 8.5 º

Kereru Brewing Company

This Belgian Dark Strong Ale, often referred to as a Quadruppel, offers a luxurious sensory experience defined by its rich, malty foundation and unique addition of black truffles. The Belgian yeast drives a sophisticated profile of dark fruit esters—reminiscent of plums and dried cherries—intertwined with a distinctive earthy, savory truffle tang. Belgian candi sugar adds deep caramel and toasty notes, creating a decadent sweetness that complements the beer’s full-bodied nature. It is a complex, smooth, and warming ale where the musky character of the truffles harmonizes with the intense maltiness and spicy phenols, resulting in a bold and distinctive monastic-style profile.

Appearance. Deep coppery-brown with brilliant clarity. It supports a huge, dense, and moussy light tan head with excellent persistence and lacing.

Aroma. High intensity of rich, toasty malt and dark caramel. Prominent dark fruit esters of raisin, fig, and plum are complemented by a unique earthy, musky aroma from black truffles. Low spicy phenols and a soft, perfumy alcohol presence are noticeable.

Taste. Initial impression is of decadent malt richness and dark sugar sweetness, balanced by a savory truffle character. Flavors of dried dark fruits and a hint of vanilla emerge, supported by a medium-low bitterness. The finish is moderately sweet and lingering, with the yeast and sugar providing a harmonious, complex depth.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a creamy, luxurious texture. High carbonation provides a lively lift to the palate. A smooth, noticeable alcohol warmth is present, reflecting its strength without being harsh or solvent-like.
